Intel Xeon E-2176M vs Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3

Xeon E-2176M vs Xeon E5-2673 v3 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2673 v3 performs better than the Xeon E-2176M. Despite this, the Xeon E-2176M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2673 v3 has significantly more cores than the Xeon E-2176M. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2673 v3 has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon E-2176M. It also has more threads than the Xeon E-2176M. A Xeon E-2176M CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2673 v3 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Xeon E-2176M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
